The Temporary Skills Shortage Skills Assessment Program (the Program) is an assessment that determines whether you can work in Australia at the required skill level for your Nominated Occupation.
The Program will take approximately 9 weeks after submitting your complete documentary evidence, and you must complete each step before you can move on to the next.
The Program is for people applying for a Skills in Demand Subclass 482 Visa to Australia who:
- Work in a Nominated Occupation from the Temporary Skills Shortage Program Occupation List.
- Hold a current and valid passport from a nominated country or Special Administrative Region (SAR) from the Temporary Skills Shortage Program Country List.
- Have relevant work experience in their Nominated Occupation.
- Are required by Home Affairs to have a discretionary skills assessment.
